Physicists Search For The Force?

Posted By Mike on February 21, 2008

Friend of TFN, Evan H., came across an interesting National Geographic article titled "The God Particle." How does this relate to Star Wars? See the excerpt below:

"The preferred name for the God particle among physicists is the Higgs boson, or the Higgs particle, or simply the Higgs, in honor of the University of Edinburgh physicist Peter Higgs, who proposed its existence more than 40 years ago. Most physicists believe that there must be a Higgs field that pervades all space; the Higgs particle would be the carrier of the field and would interact with other particles, sort of the way a Jedi knight in Star Wars is the carrier of the "force." The Higgs is a crucial part of the standard model of particle physics�but no one's ever found it."

Thanks Evan.
